Buster Bear.1" I . .' Now yon wouldn't suppose that any rsne would dare to aay such a thins a that to Buater Bear, would you? Any : , "r. you wouldn't suppose that any j ' ena who couldn't fly would dare to say i ' such a thing-, and right to Buster's face at that. You know It la a pretty .serious thins; to call anybody a Coward. Paddy the Beaver, floating- laally la bis pond deep In the Green Forest, could hardly believe his ears. And then when he saw who It was who dared to call Buster Bear a coward. raaay just raped foolishly with sur j prise and a little wavelet washed down fli1s throat and mad hiro choke and almost strangle. . I "Well I never!" exclaimed Paddy when ha could get his breath. "Whit j is this world coining- tor Then he ; laughed until he came very near to - choking again. "To think," he gasped. I "to think of. any one like Peter J Babbit, afraid of his own shadow, dar j ing to call Buster Bear a coward!" Bat It was true, as Paddy could aee and hear for himself. Peter was danc ing, about In front of Baster Bear and shouting that little rhyme In the sauciest Way And Buster Bear was irrowlng angrier every minute. No one likes to be called a coward, not even when they are very weak and small, and - have reason to be afraid. - And when ona is as big and strong as Bus. ter Bear nothing can be worse than to be called a coward. "I'm not a coward." growled Buster Bear In his deepest grurably-rumbly voice. "When I catch you, Peter Bab bit. I'll teach you to show more re pet to your betters." "When you catch me- it will be a cold.' cold day," retorted Peter, nimbly Jumping- out of the way as Buster rushed at blm. ''You are a coward, a great big coward, and you know It Tou'ra afraid of Farmer Brown's Boy, and you're afraid of that hunter who has been making no much trouble for the rest of us in the Green Forest and on the Oreen Meadows, and you know it '; "Fraidy! Fraldy! You don't dare! Tou're a coward, Buster Bear" 'Peter nimbly dodged into a great hollow log, and while Buster worked himself into a great rage as he tried to tear the log open with his great claws Peter slipped out at the other end unseen -and hid behind a big stump where he could peep and see what Buster was doing. He chuckled to himself as he watched Buster rip and tear the old log. Once he shiv ered at the thorght of what those great claws would do to him if they -. aaaafaaBsjaa-k . " - . "I'm not ft coward," growled Bus ter Bear In his deepest grumbly. nimbly voice.' ever got hold of him. But he didn't Intend that they ever should. By and by Buster paused to get his breath. -"No one -but a coward would waste hla time trying to catch a little fellow like me," said Peter. Buster Bear whirled and his face was all wrinkled with anger so that he showed all his great white teeth. He was Just plain mad. He had lost his temper completely. He was Just the maddest Bear ever was. It was bad enough to be called a coward by a little upstart Rabbit, but It was worse to have that same little upstart fool him in this way. Buster Just couldn't contain himself. He fairly roared with rage. Now nothing is so foolish as to glye way to rage. Peter didn't have any trouble at all in keeping out of Bus ter's reach because Buster waa so mad that he didn't stop to think, and Just rushed this way and that way blindly. "You know you are a coward," taunted Peter. "If you wasn't a cow ard you would 'drive that hunter out of the Green Forest. He will be sure to come hunt'ng in the Green Forest soon, and you'll have a chance to prove that you're not what I say you are a coward. Good night, Buster Bear. I hope you'll have pleasant dreams." With that Peter Rabbit started back heme as fast as he could go, lipperty-lipperty-lip. Getting Buster angry was all a part of a Plan Peter had thought out. bera wishing; employment. T. G.

OLD LADIES' SHOP Silver soutache and fur trimmings on a chamois colored frock i: f : : By Lillian E. Young. . A certain ease and . carelessness marks the general trend of the sea son's modes. For this reason,' the woman who makes her own; clothes will find her task a gTeat deal easier than In recent years, for scarcely any thing; requires fitting. Since the waist line is a thing of the past, she need not toil over gored skirts nor the Jelly-mould-like snugness of princess effects. f Skirts nowadays consist of (Straight gathered widths of materials, while blouses, as often as not, hang uncon fined over skirts. AIL these straight, easy lines, however, bespeak a studied grace which in Itself requires a cer tain skill, and though the effect is careless the workmanship is not. A very good example of the style is illustrated here In a charming little frock of chamois colored velvet and chiffon, with silver soutache embroid ery and narrow bands of dark; fur. Velvet Is used for the shirt like body portion of tho blouse, cut off In a straight line above the bust and across the shoulder blades In back and cut out to fit tinder the arms. Fur banding holds in a barely percep tible gathering- across back and sides of waist and the ends are - turned downward at either, side of the front Soutache braiding; finishes the top Shoulder sections and Ion; 'sleeves are In one and cut from chiffon to match, with a double row of .soutache trimming over the shoulders.? A little collar o white batiste flares away from the neck. I Chiffon makes the long, foil tunic. It Is attractively- trimmed at the bot tom with square, soutache braided motifs Interestingly outlined With fur. The underskirt may- be of taffeta or satin with a fold of the velvet for a hem. Dull blue, American Beauty, Russian green, a maltese gray will all work up charmingly in this design with dull silver soutache and -dark fur trim mlngs. : By Jessie Roberts. A girl who lived in a town that did not appear to offer many opportuni ties", but who wanted to make a living, and did not care to; leave home, evolved on idea that has proved immensely successful. It was nothing less than a specialty shop for old ladies. She saw that there were real old ladles left on earth, in spite of the strictures of the j funny columns in the papers who paint grandma as gayer than her granddaughter. And these old ladies had no single place where their needs and wishes were specially considered. It took her some time to get into running order, but now she. clears a good profit every year, and there seems no reason j why other young women should not make a like success. . Her idea was toj make the shop an agreeable, restful place to' which tf come. She gave her personal atteni lion to each customer until she could train a good assistant, as her grow ing business demanded. She had the daintiest of laces and soft silks, hair ornaments suited to white and gray heads. Indoor caps, bonnets, shawls, negligees of Just the right kind. She also had bedroom Jackets for lie-abed a, and a special department of black gown 8 and accessories. She took the utmost pains to evolve what should be becoming-, and gave no end to attention to fitting the taste and style of eacb-4 customer. The other shops never had enough time to give to the elderly client who was, perhaps, a trifle shy or slow of choice, but In the Old Ladies Shop time waa to be had for the asking. Comfortable chairs and lounges, foot stools and sof t lights proved an asset. What is more, the young woman loved the work, and felt she was really doing Something; that was greatly worth doing.
